Leave your thoughts about If Beale Street Could Talk.
| Lyles' Movie FilesJeffrey LylesAnother incredible accomplishment for Jenkins. He continues to be a filmmaker who finds the heart in his movies that make for these engaging, personal stories. |
| RogerEbert.comOdie HendersonNot much has changed for people of color, which probably wouldn’t surprise the author. And yet, he’d demand we not give up. This film powerfully conveys that message. The struggle is real, but so is the joy. We live, we laugh, we love and we die. But we are not gone. Our story continues, carried onward by our storytellers. |
| AwardsCircuit.comClayton DavisBombastic drama with subtle yet playful commentary on family and love, "If Beale Street Could Talk" is the turning point in our cinematic culture and what it dares to become. The future is bright, and it is good with Barry Jenkins in tow. |
| vocalo.orgReginald PonderIf Beal Street Could Talk it would tell you that love lives in the Black community, hope survives in those relationships, justice evades righteousness and family still bonds a people. A Must See, 4 Reels |
| The AtlanticDavid SimsIf Beale Street Could Talk is an impressive, mature, and determined work that ably reaches the great heights it sets for itself. |
| Pittsburgh MagazineSean CollierIt does this film a disservice ... to break it into its constituent parts; it is a cohesive, full-sensory experience, like a strong gust of wind. It's perfect. |
| NPRBob MondelloBy the end of "If Beale Street Could Talk," it was me who could barely talk. |
| VanyalandNick Johnston[...]Jenkins has crafted one of the greatest films of 2018 [...]. |
| The Critical Movie CriticsFrank Ochieng[A] soulful and artfully penetrating drama...a refreshingly stark and candid observation about the compelling anatomy of strong black love, commitment, sacrifice, and impenetrable faith. Poetically affecting and eerily as relevant today as the 70s... |
| The New RepublicMychal Denzel SmithSomething else guides Jenkins, generally and more acutely with Beale Street: He provides space for his character's flaws while never allowing those flaws to define them. |
